I wanted Sham Wow ever since I saw that guy do the commercial.  My friend got them for me for my birthday. I was SO excited. Then I used one. It did soak up the water that was overflowing from my coffee maker, however, it did smear it around too. One pass certainly was not enough for about a cup of water. But I was able to ring the towel almost completely dry and reuse it for the next spill. No dripping towels on the sink, that was probably the best feature of the Sham Wow!  I cleaned up one more spill, milk from an overturned cereal bowl, and decided it was time to wash it. I put it in the laundry, just as I was instructed.  Launder normally. When the ShamWow was done, I hung it up to let it dry. DO NOT put them in the automatic dryers (that was the warning on the box).  The towel never quite worked well after that. I know have to swipe the area about five times to totally get the mess up.  As a side note, one of my ShamWow's did make itself into the dryer and now it has become a dishcloth. It will not work if it is dried, so please be careful and remember to take it out of the washer and hang dry it.

I also accidentally put one into the dryer and it was so much softer than they normally are...and does not work now to soak up anything. Good thing there is a warning on the box!
